Shopmom,

It is a wallet.

nepherisis auction on eBay - Real Hermès Japonaise Wallet

I think they are slighlty longer than the Bearn to accomodat the size of the Yen...(I think....)

 

[Lady Emma]

It looks bigger than the bearn. Was it discontinued?

 

[Quinn's Mom]

^^^^

From what I can remember...yes.

 

[avandome]

Dear shopmom, it is the "bearn wallet"....

 

[all about bags]

I could be wrong but I believe the bearn's official name is Bearn Japonaise. I remember seeing the name in one of my H receipts for a wallet.

 

[mrssparkles]

I learn something new everyday!

 

[hermes_lemming]

it's the bearn

 

[duna]

Yep...full name "Bearn Japonaise"....

 

[Lady Emma]

Waah! I was holding out hope it was a larger bearn. Oh well. Maybe I need a a small croc agenda instead, but they do not have cc pockets. What's a girl to do?

Lady Emma - You might consider the Tri-Fold Bearn. I have one (and one on the way!). It remains "slim" but has 5 extra cc slots! HTH, HNE (I'll get some pics posted soon).

 

[Lady Emma]

Thank you HN, but I believe the slots are still made on the trifold so that you insert cards vertically. That's where my particular problem is. I'll keep searching...
